    HI,

    I am currently building my own 3DOF Sim (https://www.xsimulator.net/community/posts/213966/) and now have a question in regards to the Traction Loss function.

    Are a total moving angle of ca. 18deg and moving distance of 150mm both directions from centre enough to give you a proper impression of the traction loss?

    Thanks for your help.
